Abstract The concept of smart city is destined to give improved personal satisfaction to residents and make their lives more secure than ever. Safety of the smart citizens cannot be confirmed without safe structures. Careful designing, planning, and execution can enhance the life span of any structure. Zone factor (Z) is one of the vital parameters analyzing the earthquake-resistant structures and can be calculated via seismic hazard analysis. In this paper, Deterministic Seismic Hazard Analysis (DSHA) for a proposed smart city, Amritsar is done by using earthquake data of size (Mw) ≥ 5 for the past 516 years. Peak ground acceleration value at bedrock level, considering the grid of size 0.025° × 0.025° and using ground motion parameter equation (GMPE) by National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) is found out to be 0.414 g which is on higher side as compared to 0.24 g recommended by IS 1893-2016 part 1. The present study shows the importance of carrying out site-specific seismic hazard analysis for proposed smart cities. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
